KCR: The Ghost War (spy, novel, terrorism)

Seal of the Central Intelligence Agency of the...Image via WikipediaCIA Agent John Wells is back... back on US soil, but restless. When news of Taliban fighters getting mercenary trainers reached the CIA, John Well is going back to Afghanistan... and what he finds there is shocking... Iran about to go nuclear, a mission rescuing a defector going horribly wrong, a mole in the CIA about to destroy spy ops in China, and a general in China making a power play for world dominance...

This book is very reminiscent of Tom Clancy, albeit less techno-wiz, and bit more about the nitty-gritty world of human spies. It's a bit more reminiscent of Larry Bond's books, though not quite as globe-spanning. It's a good yarn. I wouldn't quite compare him to some of the existing masters, but he's pretty good.
